Has anyone used these on their Maxi Scooter or even any other bike?

I always had trouble... I bought a set of the side lights which failed after about 20 hours use, complained got a set for free, these lasted about 30 hours and failed, so I complained and got another set for free, these lasted about 10 hours so I just gave up.

Now I am trying a LED strips... just need to finish off the job but I have been to caught up with work and flying my new Quadcopter :D

:D I fitted a pair of their LED bullets into the front radiator fairing on my Hexagon about 4 years ago, they looked well made, fitted where I wanted them, and have worked perfectly ever since.

I also got the bullets, but I guess where I installed them they were getting too much road debris and wetness, they had all corroded inside and died after a few months

Or it may have something to do with your electrics.

First two sets I tried were on my Nexus 500, third were with the TMax which doesn't like them either... the bullets were with the TMax.
